Good morning, this is Chad with your Ocean Surf Shop surf report and forecast for Thursday, Aug 13th at 9:00 a.m.
The surf at the Pier has a clean little wave coming through. Nothing exciting, but definitely some cruisers and better than the past few days.
Winds are light/moderate out of the W 6 mph. Winds pick up out of the south around noon.
We have a high tide at report time. low tide at 2:19 p.m. . High tide will follow at 8:45 p.m.
Edisto Buoy is 2.3 foot at 5.3 seconds from the SSW.
High pressure has control over our marine area and surf is down for the foreseeable future. Eastern Atlantic tropics are starting to show some life around the Cape Verde Islands off western Africa. Models showing some healthy lows heading west towards the Lesser Antilles by next week. The bad news is that models suggest these lows losing organization once they arrive to the Caribbean islands. One is showing some potential but forecast to stay to the south. Something to watch and keep an eye hope they can survive.
NOAA says: “Strong high pressure centered over the Deep South will keep hot and humid conditions in place through the rest of the week. A front is expected to impact the South Carolina Lowcountry and Southeast Georgia by late this weekend.”
It’s a humid 84* with sunshine. Look for a hot 90* and sunny.
Sunrise is 6:42 a.m. and sunset will be at 8:06 p.m.
Thanks for checking in with Ocean Surf Shop.
